    I don't see a lot of use for this, primarily because VRML world systems =
    are beginning to show up right and left.  MOO is a text-based system =
    which would only hold you back and hinder you whereas a real VRML based =
    system which was designed with VRML as the primary I/O intent will be =
    far superior.

    There are two VRML world systems I know of, one is put out by intel, =
    search for 'Moondo', and the other is put out by Worlds, and is =
    currently designated AlphaWorld (Http://www.worlds.net)  These both =
    allow you to download VRML world browsers, and the second one even =
    allows you to build things with sound and animated objects and http =
    links.  Neither of these platforms yet allow you to do a lot of things =
    that MOO can do, but I don't imagine it will be too long before they're =
    designed into the systems, so I'd strongly suggest you take a look at =
    these before you spend too much time trying to figure out how to make =
    MOO do what it was never designed to do, especially the one at =
    worlds.net.  (And just for the heck of it if anyone cares to take a =
    look, my building is at 649s/491e on worlds.net. :) )
